December Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

I agree with Tomecia, this is really getting real. The hospital called and said I had to be there at 6am and all the other normal yada yada.

I can hardly wrap my head around this wonderful thing happening tomorrow. I keep hearing that country song in my head, "I'm with the band." I think that's going to be my theme song. It really does fit the situation I think.

Good luck tomorrow everyone! I have a 5 hour drive to make so I won't be on much more today. Maybe tonight if I can't sleep.

Take a deep breath! Is your doctors' office going to help figure out what is happening? Do you need to call someone to clarify? I wish I could snap my fingers and fix this all for you . . . what did they tell you to do?

Ladies,

Depending on how you feel after the op and how far you have to travel, i found the best thing was to make sure you have one of your favourite older bras to wear home - you will not want anything to tight or restrictive to start with - especially with the gas they fill you up with. Another fashion tip, a pair of pull on pants - track pants is great - or ones with a draw string waist as this allows you to have them a little looser around your incisions. I know they won't get you in the best dressed list - but if you have any distance to travel on your way home - comfort is more important.

I'm having surgery tomorrow, I'm so excited!!! So far everything is good. Went to my pre-op appt yesterday and I have reflux pretty bad, and a small hernia....from being overweight. The doctor said if it's bad he'll fix it,and hopefully loosing weight will help with the reflux.

So I went and got a super soft fleece blanket, and some fleece pijama pants, so that I can be comfortable. Have been having the last meal syndrome all week. My doctor didn't require a pre-op diet.

OK its fix I hope we all got on the phone together (conf. call ) called UHC to make sure I was covered Rep. said yes approved for surgery at surgery center of fort worth. the letter did not said that becasue I only applied to have surgery at one hospital. Rep said that most Dr. office submitt at least 2 hospital so that their customer will get approved with no problems so as of today I am on for friday 12/7/07 at 9am

I'm impatiently waiting for my date. I've been depressed the past couple of days. I hope it goes away. I just want to start my losing journey. Right now all I think about is eating. I tired of feeling like this.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
